Distancing change - The RFU hope to welcome crowds back to Twickenham this year despite the coronavirus AFP/Adrian DENNISLONDON: The Rugby Football Union has urged the British government to relax its rules on social distancing, calculating such a move be worth £12 million to England's governing body if crowds are allowed back into Twickenham for the November internationals.
Sweeney stressed the RFU would not compromise safety in favour of larger crowds or go against UK government regulations but officials wanted"clarity on whether the two-metre rule is absolutely essential or is one metre possible". "It is probably worth in the region of £3 million a game and I believe we would be able to open catering facilities, as long as they were out of doors."
